Detailed analysis of gene expression by real time-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) has become a widespread method. To normalize the expression of target genes, this approach relies on constitutively expressed internal controls known as housekeeping genes (HKGs). Their proper selection is a critically important methodological step, since all the studied gene expression will be recalculated based on HKG expression. This concise review aims to discuss the selection of HKGs for endometrial cancer (EC) studies. We draw attention to the fact that the commonly used gene glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (
